Cook, Genealogist.found on ancestry.comHammond Family, Rochester HAMMOND. In what was ancient Rochester and Dartmouth, including the later subdivisions of those towns, the Hammond family has dwelt from almost the very dawn of the civilization of this section, and it was a still earlier family in an older part of Massachusetts; and for a century and a half the branch here considered has been identified with the development of Dartmouth, Fairhaven and New Bedford. Reference is made to some of the descendants of Amittai Hammond, latterly of New Bedford, where for some sixty years his son, the late Caleb Hammond, and the latter's sons, Edgar B. and Henry F. Hammond, together and in turn have been the leading architects of their city, the elder Hammond figuring largely in the planning for many of the buildings erected in that period in his city and also figuring conspicuously in the city's public affairs. His lineage and family history follow. (I) William Hammond, a native of London, County Kent, England, where he married Elizabeth Penn, sister of Sir William Penn, admiral, and aunt to William Penn, the Quaker, was probably a descendant of the Hammonds of St. Albans Court, County Kent. He died and was buried in London. Their children, all born in London, were: Benjamin, Elizabeth, Martha and Rachel. The mother, a widow, with her son Benjamin and three daughters, all young, left a good estate in London, and came over to New England in the troublesome times of 1634, from a desire to have the liberty to serve God according to the dictates of conscience. They arrived in Boston, September 18, 1634, in the ship "Griffin" and had with them the Rev. John Lothrop, their minister. Mrs. Hammond lived in Boston and Watertown until 1638, when she joined Rev. John Lothrop's Church in Scituate, April 16, 1638, being the thirty-third member thereof. She probably returned to Boston near the close of the year 1639, as she died and was buried there in 1640. (II) Benjamin Hammond, son of William and Elizabeth (Penn) Hammond, born in 1621, in London, England, came to New England with his mother and family as stated above. He went to Sandwich and there in 1650 married Mary Vincent, daughter of John Vincent, who was born in England in 1633. Benjamin Hammond had been for a time in Yarmouth before his marriage, as he was there in 1643. His children by Mary were: Samuel, John, Nathan, Benjamin, Rose and Mary. The parents, with their sons Nathan and Benjamin, probably located in Rochester about 1684. They died there, Benjamin in 1703, aged eighty-two, and Mary, in 1705, aged seventy-two.(III) Samuel Hammond, son of Benjamin and Mary (Vincent) Hammond, born in 1655, went with his brother John to Rochester about 1680, and settled in the extreme southwesterly part of the town known as the "West Neck," where he lived to advanced life much respected. He was one of the founders and a prominent member of the First Congregational Church in Rochester, now located in Marion. He was an extensive landholder, and settled four of his sons around him, namely: Seth, Josiah, Barnabas and Jedediah, the last named later removing to Scituate. Samuel married about 1680, Mary Hathaway, and their children were: Benjamin, born December 18, 1681; Seth, born February 13, 1683; Rosamond, born May 8, 1684; Samuel, born March 8, 1685; Thomas, born September 16, 1687; Jedediah, born September 19, 1690; Josiah, born September 15, 1692; Barnabas, born January 20, 1694; Maria, born January 27, 1697; John, born October 4, 1701; and Jedediah (2), born September 30, 1703. from Representative men and old families of southeastern Massachusetts, Volume 3 By J.H.
